Passing by a hi speed connection, so I just popped in and watched the intro.
Breathtaking! I had no idea any of us could dance like that! :carrot:

Have to admit you're getting better, getting better every day... Petty. (With apologies to the Beatles - Ock!) Very Happy

Well its certainly not deliberate! Mad

Why was I nominated for best lore? scratch

Just because I own all the books, doesn't mean I can remember most of them

BNfilmz posts at IMDB btw, if anyone fancies voting for him as an ambassador as well btw Razz

If you can balance them all on your head you will never forget them, and when doing so all the information is kept close to the memory device housed within the skull.

That's just science.

I don't advise this in theaters however and for example, unless you sit in the back row.

That's exactly the kind of useful lorecraft that has kept you in office you in office you in office so far. That and your knowledge of horses.

"... you in office you in office so far. That and your knowledge of horses."

Thanks David, but for clarity it is Sharrasi's knowledge of horses. Which brings me to stealing... also part of good loremastery if it's done correctly... although in the tower it can be called 'lifting' rather than stealing.

Or "echoing".

A different kind of echo kind of echo than seems to be in your last post David Wink

I think you'll find that's just an acoustical effect of the size of your grand office office office office office office office office office office office office office office office office office

What? I think Eldo resides in that tower... my room is smallish and has crows in it. Although you might be right still, as I often hear caw followed by another caw... and another, and so on.

Could be echoes Suspect

Loved that intro vid, Petty Very Happy

When are you planning on hosting the ceremony? I'm out of town this weekend, I'm afraid, but I'll PM you my votes, and if the awards are this weekend I'll have something to look forward to on the plane home Very Happy

by Pettytyrant101 Mon Mar 16, 2015 4:57 pm

Why was I nominated for best lore?- Malick

Um, why not? Shrugging

(Besides if I stick to strictly official Lore Masters its just a straight fight between Eldo and Elthir every year)

Thanks Ringdrotten (and Dave) not 100% sure exactly when Ringdrotten, as things are I rather suspect I will be off line some time soon, as in later today, tomorrow or the next day at best- in which case I wont be back until next Tues or Weds. Mad

Well, at least Petty ships us. Smile

{{{I guess I was caught up in the fanfiction when I first saw that, as I had just read the last part you wrote, in which we're.. cousins? So, in that context it seemed a bit.. weird. Razz

Not that I'm complaining, mind. Wink

HENRY: Speak up Minnie I can't hear you!
MINNIE: Ooooooooh! He's at the dooor!

SEAGOON: Yes! You....
HENRY: Well I've answered the door once to you already!
SEAGOON: But sir you don't understand.
HENRY: Could you, could you stop knocking again 'cos my aunt Bannister wishes to have words with me?
SEAGOON: Oh, well, well still I haven't got all night.
HENRY: Minnie?
MINNIE: Yeees.
HENRY: He says that he hasn't got all night.
MINNIE: Who hasn't?
HENRY: What is your name, sir?
SEAGOON: Captain Seagoon.
HENRY: A Captain Seagoon.
MINNIE: I'm sorry I've never heard of him.
HENRY: She's sorry she's never heard of you.
SEAGOON: Listen, man alive this is vital!
MINNIE: [Over Seagoon] Goodnight Henry.
SEAGOON: [Curt] Goodnight!
MINNIE: Goodnight.
